Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single

She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.

You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.

The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

Quick background...I've always been shy around girls...shy period to some extent. At its worst I had no friends...in HS 4 years ago. No need to dwell on it though. I've come a long way and it hasn't been easy. Had a short-lived relationship a while ago. A 20 and counting yr old virgin. Always had my chances. Supposedly I'm good-looking, though I know confidence and actually taking action trumps that. If you sit on your hands, you're never gonna get action. Period.

Anyway, last Sat at a party I was hanging out w/some friends when I saw this girl smile at me twice a few feet behind me while I was talking to a friend. Usually I wouldn't do anything but that night something inside me clicked. Luckily someone else I knew was talking to this girl's friend so I had an opening. We talked a bit...I have a funny game where I guess what school the girl's at and 9/10 I'm right...which I was here. Then we went to a nearby party and danced. When she waved her friend goodbye I knew I was in. We made out on the floor but rather than continue w/this (in the past I've danced too long w/a girl and the tension is lost) I just said let's get out of here. She gave a light objection "you're not gonna take advantage of me?" which in the past would've deterred me but not this time.

I've had a few girls back in my room before, but all we would do was make out. I guess my fear that my inexperience would be "found out" crippled me. I just went for it and we did everything except sex. Halfway through the night she asked if I wanted her to go or stay and I didn't say anything. Instead I climbed back into bed and she followed. The next morning she left, she said she had "fun," I got her # and that was that. She seemed to want me to say or do something else but I wasn't too sure on the etiquette.

So what next? I'm not as clueless as I seem. I know in the morning the girl probably wanted me to indicate to her that I valued her and didn't just use her. It's been a few days so I should call soon...I don't know what I want but it'd be nice to continue doing casual stuff. But how do I go from a random hookup to a casual conversation? Should we go to the cafe on campus or what?
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

You probably should have called her the next day. The popular vote around here is to wait a couple days, but I don't like that approach. Girls don't like it when they feel like you used them and how would they feel if you've never called them until after a few days later? The whole principle behind it is to appear busy, but it is just so artificially made it usually doesn't execute well.

It's not too late to call her again, just set up a meet time and have a date.

We hung out again. We were both going to the same party so I told her to text me when she got there. We danced and talked a little. It seemed like she wanted to go back so I'm like "I'll walk you back." She's like "I don't know you well enough for that." I immediately feigned innocence and was like "Huh?!I just wanted to walk you." She then apologized lol. We chilled another 20 minutes later at the party and then I saw some friends who wanted to chill. I acted like I was gonna go w/them and then she's like "want to come back?"

In hindsight, though, I think I screwed up next. I suggested a movie we watched part of it, "cuddling," but she fell asleep at some point. So did I. I woke up early in the AM and left. Later in the AM, Fri AM, she texts saying she had a fun time and we should hang out again. What's the problem, then? I don't want anything serious w/her now. I'm sure of it. It's too early in the semester. It feels like I'm going down the dating path when all I wanted was a hookup. How do I get it back to that?

How do you get back to having a hook up with her? First ya gotta go down to the Science Department and have them transplant a set of testies for you. Then you call this girl up and invite her over to your place. You kino and escalate it until she is so rev'd up she pulls you into the bedroom. And if she doesn't, you take her hand and bring her into your room.

Right now you are treating her like your gf. DON'T DO THAT!!!!!!

Treat her like a casual hook up.



:( you know in Europe you just gotta be friends with a chick to hook up with her. You are not in Europe.

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

from my experience if you don't want to go down the dating path, don't speak everyday, be busy catch up say once a week. At a party then back to yours escalate or say . it is sometimes hard to go back but in your situation I am sure its not too late. just be honest, say its early in the semester and i want to achieve this..so i don't want a gf at the moment but love hanging out. See her once a week and resist her advances in terms of seeing you more and becoming bf and gf. works for me.
